My surf has been off the road for 3 years now, but looking to get it back roadworthy. Apart from bodywork rusting quite bad, it was driving fine when I decided to get a new car.
I don't have much mechanical experience but want to try to do most of the work myself.
I believe I need new batteries, discs, pads, exhaust, cam belt and a general service. Planning on trying to put plates on the bottom of the doors as this is where the rust is worst and haven't been able to find any suitable replacements.
Has anyone got any advice on if I should leave some of this work to a mechanic or if the work is relatively easy? Also is there anything else that's worth changing out while i'm at it?
Cheers
